Quickdeploy
Deploy your Web app to a VPS in less than 5 minutes. From localhost to live with one command. Your own server, your domain, zero vendor lock-in. (Revenue a bit off as it is one product in my account, quickdeploy is the revenue starting from August)
Quickdeploy: $0 MRR but 70% monthly growth - deploy web apps to VPS in 5 minutes with zero vendor lock-in.
Currently none - simple deployment wrapper with minimal technical differentiation
- Indie developers and small startups building with modern JS frameworks (Next.js, SvelteKit, etc.) who want simple VPS deployment without DevOps complexity
- Agency developers deploying client projects who need predictable pricing
- No clear pricing for multiple apps
- No team features
- No deployment history/rollbacks
- Limited framework support beyond listed ones
- Focus on specific frameworks (SvelteKit-first deployment)
- Add database deployment automation
- Create marketplace for deployment templates
- Offer migration from Vercel/Netlify
Medium - Developer tools can spread through GitHub repos and tech communities, but current lack of integrations limits virality
- Established players (Vercel/Netlify) could add VPS deployment feature
- Low barrier to entry means many competitors
- Revenue uncertainty - claims of growth but $0 MRR
- Single founder with limited public track record
$2,000-$5,000 for MVP (mostly development time, minimal infrastructure)
- Git integration for automatic deployments
- VPS provisioning API integration (DigitalOcean/Linode)
- SSL certificate automation
- Basic deployment dashboard
- One-command deployment CLI
